When I click on the showcase link, my Firefox 3.0.3 _downloads_ de PDF, doesn't show it in the browser. I then double click the downloaded file, Adobe Reader 8.1.2 starts up and if I click a link, it says "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found."
I deleted the Reader and downloaded/installed Reader 9.0.0 from the Adobe website. This time no error message but also no action when I click on any link but "quit" Still, it must be something on my machine, since others don't have this problem.
